Join other homeschool families for a FREE day of fun and historical activities at the Tennessee State Museum on Friday, September 15, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.! The theme of the day is “Citizenship,” and special programs will center on that theme.

As part of naming a special day for homeschoolers, the museum will clear its calendar, and reserve museum programs only for homeschoolers. Also, two capitol tour times of 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. will also be reserved for homeschoolers.

Programs will include:
• A citizenship quiz station where students can test their knowledge of American law by answering the same question immigrants have to on the citizenship test;

• A “Notable Tennessean Citizen” station where students can learn about famous Tennesseans;

• A first person interpretation by characters in costume representing historic Tennesseans; and

• Hands-on activities.

There is no charge for participation. Parking is only available in paid lots downtown. For questions, email Rachel.McCreery@tn.gov. For a list of downtown parking lots and prices click here.
